The electricity certainly gets used for lots of different things.

UDP and TCP is what I want my ISPs concerned with, not what I'm doing with those packets.

no even that's too high - your ISP shouldn't be dealing with UDP or TCP (or anything else) - they should route IP packets and be done with it

Heh well, may help with QoS, but I guess that we've seen what a slippery slope that can be.
